GWYNN OAK, Md. (May 2021): Nasir struggles with sickle cell disease and seizures, making it difficult for him to live a carefree childhood. He can’t play as actively as most kids his age, so video games are especially important to Nasir. He can immerse himself in all his favorite games, playing in any gaming environment, and using his imagination to become his own superhero. Kids Wish Network made his dream come true, giving Nasir the latest generation 10.2 inch iPad, Apple AirPods with a wireless charging case, and a Target gift card loaded with lots of spending money for the shopping spree of his dreams.  

“It was really heartwarming seeing Nasir so joyful when he found out his wish was coming true,” said his Wish Coordinator Kara De Rocco. “He was so excited and all smiles!”

Many Thanks

Kids Wish Network could not have provided this wish to Nasir without the help of the many supporters who believe in making wishes come true for kids who need hope.
